Who Is Banksy? In this program, we will explore the art of Banksy, an anonymous British artist who has been creating graffiti-inspired works on public sites since the 1990’s. We will discuss the satirical and critical aspects of Banksy’s works, how he relates to other contemporary artists and, ultimately, try to answer the question of who he is and why he creates such provocative artwork.
